The Lemon Ice King of Corona is an Italian ice shop located in Corona, Queens. Founded in 1944 by Nicola Benfaremo out of a garage, it is a long-standing business considered a neighborhood institution, and gained international fame for its appearance in the opening credits of the sitcom The King of Queens. While believed to be one of the first places to serve Italian ice, the creation of the dessert was traced back even earlier to Di Cosmo's Italian Ice in Elizabeth, New Jersey, which was founded in 1915. The ices served by them are made in-house and have a creamy, semi-solid texture despite the lack of any dairy ingredients, achieved by small-batch churning.
